Solid targets system with in-situ target dissolution

William Gelbart ASD Inc. Poster The Author claims no conflicts of interest. In solid targets irradiation systems, the solid target must be transferred to the irradiation position for irradiation and then removed for processing. In the simplest form each target is transferred manually between the hot-cell and the accelerator. More …

Diffusion cladding of solid radioisotope production targets

William Gelbart ASD Inc. Poster The author claims no conflicts of interest. Solid parent materials, mostly metallic, are usually attached to a substrate (metal part, often copper or silver) to support it during handling and irradiation and to facilitate liquid or gas cooling to remove the heat generated by the …
